Welcome new librarian--Sociology & Communication Studies

Colleagues,

I am pleased to announce that Christopher Thomas has accepted a limited term assignment as Liaison Librarian for Sociology and Communication Studies. Chris will be joining us on July 4, 2005 and will be assigned the office which is being vacated by Kelli Bellew-Martin during her leave. Chris' phone number will be 220-7737 and his email address will be cthomas@ucalgary.ca .

Chris' most recent library experience was with the Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Science and Technology where he served for five years as Information Literacy and Public Services Librarian. Before that he worked in Calgary, from 1999 to 2000, as Business Information Specialist at TransCanada Pipelines library here in Calgary. Chris received his MLIS from the University of Western Ontario in 1999 and he has a BA (Honours) in Sociology from McMaster University.

Please keep an eye out for our new colleague and join me in welcoming him to the University of Calgary.
